You're preaching to the choir, my friend. LBJ is such a fascinating failure. I fear that the truth will never be told because he ensured so many degrees of separation from it, but I'm convinced that he set something in motion (read J. Edgar) to do away with Kennedy. November 23, 1963 was followed by his strong-arming (maybe blackmailing) Warren and others into NOT looking for the truth. When the dust settles on the 20th Century, LBJ and x42 are going to be tied for 1st place as the worst President, with FDR running a close second. JMO

"Landslide" Lyndon was such a great guy, such a tower of integrity, that he was bedding down one of his best friends wife. He was a clintonoid before clintonism was cool.

That would be a "Surething"Trifecta no doubt.
And just think, we lived through all three of those sons-a-bitches.

My brother, who worked in Washington at the time, tells me that in 1963-4 all of in-the-know Washington privately believed LBJ was behind the JFK assassination.

Wasn't Hoover "close" to LBJ politically and "distant" from JFK and Nixon?
